Name Game

When it comes to a first, middle and last name I for one have been blessed. No, I am not going to share, but they are original enough to make me feel special but not so strange that I am made to feel like a freak (except for one person in college who took my initials and made it into a part of the female anatomy).

Being in a business where I come in constant contact with new people or at least their information, I have come across some strange ones. So in my continued effort to be thankful I bring you the following list (names I have come across):

Thank you God my name is not....

First names:

Pervez
Jesus (the bar is too high)
Kevin (was a girl)
Dick
Suckie

Last names:

Overfelt (especially bad as a woman)
Weiner/ Weener
Raper (he was a male)
Niggaman (I have yet to say his last name out loud)
Hussein
Bush
Binladen
Stoner
Stumpy (I'm already on the short side)



Disclaimer: I am sorry if your name is part of the list. This name has made you the wonderful person you are but I as a weaker person never would have made it with that name....I can't run that fast.

My friend's last name is "Supple" and she is always on the look out for a guy with a last name that will go well with hers ("Supple Cox" is one of her personal faves).

I am SO glad my real name is unique even if it pains me daily to have to pronounce and spell it. I can't take anyone with the name "Dick" seriously. They have many choices for nicknames from the name Richard. Why Dick?!

Ok, I kid you not... my first OB/GYN's name was Peter Bump.

Google him. He does exist.
